Broken beyond repair but highly affable
I slept in some, no 'Snomageddon' like all the weathermen are soiling their shorts over, and hoping that your house is more fortunate this year than a couple back.

I'm listening to the little 20 watt 1982ish Pioneer SX-400 I got running a day or so back, it beats the Bundy Bunch, and some bird watcher oughta beat them.

Last song: Tell Her No - The Zombies

The Youngbloods - Sunlight
(1971, RCA)




a compilation of tracks from earlier Youngblood albums. I'm listening in the basement system while working on a speaker project.

Spinning with an Elac Miracord TT w/ Stanton 681EEE cartridge, fully automatic. Nice.

I have an RL/RL of this album buried in an unsorted box. I listened to the 4 track tape this afternoon - great dynamics and low frequencies on the Akai deck. ...Whole Lotta Love is a thrill.

I keep hoping it will get better as the years go by, but I still suffer from overexposure to this and most of the LZ records.

What speaker project??
rescuing/temporary repair on a woofer driver from an ADS L710. I managed to bump the cabinet last month when moving furniture, fell off its speaker stand and landed face down on the corner of a bookshelf speaker. The woofer cone sustained a small gouge. I love the sound of these ADS L710s with a tube amp, so I was bummed but I put them in the basement and swapped in a pair of JBL 4425s. Today, I applied a dab of Aleen's tacky glue on the front/back of the cone after smoothing out the gouged surface.

I'll eventually send the driver to Richard So - the former ADS engineer in AZ - for repair/re-cone, but this is a temporary solution.

Thanks SLF, appreciate that...
